WANTED I need a .44 snub nose

[Old Fart]

ok, looking at threads I see these are available on 1851 or 1860 platforms.. Choice? Is ASM a horrible choice? I can wait for ESM to get the 1860 version

I have several Pietta 1860 snubbies.
.451 RB
Most have action wotk & cap rakes by CoffinMaker

OK, I looked at the 6 that I have in my stable, and found 2 that I could let go of.
It was a hard decision to pick them, and I almost decided to chuck the whole thing, but, here they are:

They first is a plow-handle gripped Pietta 1860, marked "CF", which means made in 2010.
My Gunsmith (Michael Rudolph AKA CoffinMaker) cut and crowned a factory barrel to 3-1/8 inches, and dovetailed a new front sight in.
*It is in nice condition
*good bore
*good cylinder chambers
*Slix aftermarket nipples (Made to fit Remington #10 caps)
*Cap rake installed by CoffinMaker -- see image (Keeps spent caps from falling into the action)
*Action work by CoffinMaker
*.451 round ball

The second gun is a factory 1860 snubbie
Thunderer grip frame with walnut grips
Marked "BI", which means made in 1997
*It is in nice condition
*good bore
*good cylinder chambers
*Slix aftermarket nipples (Made to fit Remington #10 caps)
*Cap rake installed by CoffinMaker -- see image (Keeps spent caps from falling into the action)
*Action work by CoffinMaker
*.451 round ball

The first image shows the gunsmith-installed cap rake.
It is a steel post behind the nipple that keeps the spent cap from falling back into the action.
The hammer is grooved to pass by the rake and pop the cap.

Guns are $350 each + $20 USPS Priority Mail, insured shipping = $370 to your door
USPS Money Order or Certified Bank Check please.
Thanks for looking.
Please let me know if you want to purchase one.
Thanks
